Wine
Wine is the strongest drink for insanity that you can make: a bottle lowers it by 25, 30 or 35 by grade. Four Grape Juice of one grade age into 4 Wine of that grade in the Wine Barrel (5 with the Winemaster perk), with the Winemaking technology (175 green, 20 blue) and Farming mastery 10.
The town Brewery sells plain Wine from tier II (10, then 20 in stock), and the better grades at tier III. Wine is also the best source of Alcohol: a bottle at the Distillation Cube gives 4, where ciders give 1 or 2. In the Factory 8 bottles pack into a Supply: Wine crate.

Notes
- Every grade counts as wine for distilling: the Alcohol recipe takes any of them, so distil plain wine and drink the better grades.
- Each grade is studied on its own: plain Wine costs 10 Science and gives 30 green and 10 blue.
- Drinking it counts toward Bottle Tester.
